very self explanatory, please change login screen background to default garuda wallpaper. Login would look like a smooth transition. Currently garuda dragonized version has kde plasma official login screen background. Please provide out of box garuda desktop default wallpaper for login screen
only go in settings ---> under start option
or seach sddm
only choose the style you want maybe new download
and choose the background you want
but where to get the wallpaper don't know
i use a screen record
have fun
greetings nickschecka

It's in /usr/share/wallpapers/garuda-wallpapers/
I am asking to make the login background same as the desktop background as default. Many distros do this so should garuda.
Feel free to do as you wish with your installation, but if you break it, you bought it.
This type of wording ^^^ comes off as more of a demand, rather than a request. Demanding a distro be remade to your custom specifications after only being a forum member one day, also tends to comes off as being rather presumptuous.
Why don’t you get to know how KDE and an Ach based distro like Garuda actually works before firing off a pile of questions and requests for change on your fist day here. Do some reading on the forum and the Archwiki to familiarize yourself with how the distro actually works and is configured. Once you’ve used Garuda for a while you will able to make far more informed commentaries on the forum that will be taken more seriously.

was willst du denn eigentlich damit sagen
ja viele machen es so aber
du kannst es dir doch so anpassen wie du willst
du bist nicht alle und nicht jedermann bist du
nur weil 3 leute nach nem garuda login screen schreien muss das team noch lange nicht alles umsetzen ich glaube die haben genug zu tun
what are you actually trying to say
yes many do it that way but
you can customize it as you like
you are not everyone and not everyone is you
just because 3 people are screaming for a garuda login screen does not mean the team has to implement everything I think they have enough to do

I would like to say go play somewhere else if you have a problem with facts. 
But we are not rude. 
Eat or die. 
Suggestions may be interesting but just because everyone or many else is doing it that way is a really strong statement and of course, we have to stick to it.

If you know how to set this by default please let me know!
Wouldve done this if I knew how, even though the correct SDDM configs are used it wont apply for a new installation (both wallpaper & SDDM theme)
Workaround until a solution is found:

The only way is to create and use (bypass Theme= with snippet) a custom theme.
Of course, it may be possible to create a dummy theme, using symlinks to default (Breeze) and only keep conf files and maybe images.
If I find time I may test if this works.

I have a way but I am not sure if that would work. Let me know later.
Keep all configs the way they are. They should use kde wallpaper as default.
Now find the same wallpaper that the kde login screen uses as per default.
Let's say it's name is.... Maybe abcd.png and some occurances are as xyz.jpg,
Convert ghosts.jpg to png as well.
Now replace all instances of abcd.png and xyz.jpg across the system by first removing it, then copying the garuda wallpaper called ghosts.jpg or ghosts.png over those locations and renaming it as abcd.png or xyz.jpg
I guess it could be automated via a simple shell script. Might as well require sudo privilege
The default login screen works with the default image. It will be located somewhere it the file system. Replacing the image with the same file name and file extension could trick kde to make garuda wallpaper the login wallpaper?
first go to /usr/share/wallpapers/garuda-wallpapers choose the wallpaper you want
for me its ghosts
save to documents
then only go in settings ---> under start option
or seach sddm
and change login screen you want to have
look at the picture
it is easy don't make it such complicated

Go to system settings, startup and shutdown, and then the first option that says login screen (SDDM) and hover your mouse over the currently applied theme on the option that says change background, just select load from file and select your image, if you want to select garuda default wallpapers then click on your drive and go to/usr/share/wallpapers/garuda-wallpapers and open then click on apply and that’s it, it won’t show as if it’s applied you’ll need to restart and you’ll see the change on your login screen
Optional, if you also want to change your lock screen go to system settings, workspace behaviour, screen locking, and besides appearance click on configure and select your image, now your wallpaper, login screen, and lock screen will all have the same image
Thanks for the tip @Vishal2, and welcome to the community.
I will take this opportunity to close this old thread.
